Detailed 1/72 Austrian Infantry from Italeri 6005

The Italeri 6005 model recreates Austrian infantry units active in the Napoleonic period, concentrating on troop types common during the 1809 operations. It is suited to hobbyists who enjoy painting historical figures and building accurate period scenes.

Period notes and modelling interest

Austrian forces around 1809 featured uniform shifts, notably the 1798 helmet used by light troops such as the Frei-Corps and Jagers. Italeri reflects these differences, providing sculpted riflemen and grenadiers complete with bearskin headgear. The set is ideal for portraying skirmish lines or formations like the Grenadiers Corps Reserve under Liechtenstein.

Build flow and presentation

Containing 48 figures plus a horse, this kit supplies enough figures for tabletop displays or modest diorama projects. The moulding detail supports fine painting work and offers a rewarding assembly for both newer and experienced modellers, ending in a period-accurate presentation piece.

Yes. The figures are 1/72 scale and work well on standard wargaming bases once painted and varnished. Consider grouping figures to match your gaming base sizes.
Use plastic cement for the strongest bond. Cyanoacrylate (super glue) also works for quick joins, especially for small detail parts.
Minor repositioning is possible but take care when cutting and reattaching limbs. Pinning joins with thin wire helps secure modified poses.
This kit focuses on figure sculpts and does not include extensive unit decals. Use paint and transfers from other 1/72 accessories to add unit insignia.
